“Mark Zuckerberg is now living out every young person's worst nightmare: trying to explain how tech stuff works to the nation's elderly.”

“扎克伯格正在经历所有年轻人最恐怖的噩梦：努力向这个国家的老年人解释科技产品的工作原理。”

Right to privacy

用户的隐私权

“I believe it’s important to tell people exactly how the information that they share on Facebook is going to be used.

“我认为，关键是要告诉用户，他们在脸书上分享的信息将被如何使用。”

“That’s why, every single time you go to share something on Facebook, whether it’s a photo in Facebook, or a message, every single time, there’s a control right there about who you’re going to be sharing it with ... and you can change that and control that in line.

“这就是为什么每当你在脸书上分享一张照片、一条信息等内容时，每一次都有决定分享给谁的权力，你也可以更改权限。”

“To your broader point about the privacy policy ... long privacy policies are very confusing. And if you make it long and spell out all the detail, then you’re probably going to reduce the percent of people who read it and make it accessible to them.”

Senator Dick Durbin asked if Zuckerberg would be comfortable sharing the name of the hotel he stayed in last night.

参议员迪克•杜尔滨询问扎克伯格，是否对公开自己前一晚入住的酒店名称感到舒服。

“No. I would probably not choose to do that publicly, here” he said. “I think everyone should have control over how their information is used.”

“不，我可能不会选择在这儿公开。我认为每个人都应该有权决定他们的信息被用于何处。”

Cambridge Analytica

剑桥分析公司

“Cambridge Analytica wasn’t using our services in 2015, as far as we can tell ... They weren’t an advertiser. They weren’t running pages. So we actually had nothing to ban.”

“剑桥分析公司在2015年没有使用我们的服务，据我们所知，他们不是广告商。他们没有运营脸书主页。所以我们实际上没什么可禁的。”

Later Zuckerberg corrected himself.

随后，扎克伯格纠正了自己的回答。

“I want to correct one thing that I said earlier in response to a question … [on] why we didn’t ban Cambridge Analytica at the time when we learned about them in 2015.

“我想先纠正我刚才的一个回答，那个问题是脸书为什么在2015年发现剑桥分析公司的所作所为后，没禁止他们访问脸书。”

“[From] what my understanding was ... they were not on the platform, [they] were not an app developer or advertiser. When I went back and met with my team afterwards, they let me know that Cambridge Analytica actually did start as an advertiser later in 2015.

“So we could have in theory banned them then. We made a mistake by not doing so. But I just wanted to make sure that I updated that because I ... I ... I misspoke, or got that wrong earlier.

“所以，理论上我们当时是可以禁止他们访问的。我们没有这样做，这确实是一个错误。我现在想更新一下，我刚才是口误了，刚才回答时弄错了。”

“When we heard back from Cambridge Analytica that they had told us that they weren’t using the data and deleted it, we considered it a closed case. In retrospect, that was clearly a mistake. We shouldn’t have taken their word for it. We’ve updated our policy to make sure we don’t make that mistake again.”

“Yes, we store data ... some of that content with people’s permission.”

“是的，我们存储信息……其中部分内容是获得了用户许可的。”

“There’s a very common misconception that we sell data to advertisers. We do not sell data to advertisers.”

“很多人有一个误解，认为脸书将信息卖给了广告方。我们没有把信息卖给广告方。”

“What we allow is for advertisers to tell us who they want to reach, and then we do the placement … That’s a very fundamental part of how our model works and something that is often misunderstood.”

“我们只是让广告商告诉我们，他们想把信息投放给谁，然后由我们来投放……这是我们工作模式中非常重要的一部分，也是经常被人误解的地方。”

Regulations

监管

“My position is not that there should be no regulation.

“我不赞同互联网不应该被监管。”

“I think the real question, as the internet becomes more important in people’s lives, is what is the right regulation, not whether there should be or not.”

“由于互联网在人们的生活中越来越重要，我认为问题的关键在于什么是正确的监管，而不在于管还是不管。”

Russian interference

俄罗斯干预美国大选

“One of my greatest regrets in running the company is that we were slow in identifying the Russian information operations in 2016.

“在运营公司的过程中，我最大的遗憾莫过于没能在2016年及时发现俄罗斯操纵信息的行为。”

“We have kicked off an investigation … I imagine we’ll find some things.

“我们已经展开调查，我想我们会有所收获的。”

“There are people in Russia whose job it is to try to exploit our systems and other internet systems and other systems as well.

“在俄罗斯，有人专门负责操纵脸书以及其他互联网系统，还有其他系统。”

“This is an ongoing arms race. As long as there are people sitting in Russia whose job is it to try to interfere in elections around the world, this is going to be an ongoing conflict.”

“这是一场正在进行的军备竞赛。只要俄罗斯雇人干预全世界的竞选活动，这场对抗就会持续下去。”

Taking responsibility

承担责任

“It was my mistake, and I’m sorry.

“这是我的错，我感到很抱歉。”

“I started Facebook, I run it, and I’m responsible for what happens here.

“我创立了脸书，我负责经营，我对脸书所发生的一切负有责任。”

“It’s clear now that we didn’t do enough to prevent these tools from being used for harm. That goes for fake news, foreign interference in elections, and hate speech, as well as developers and data privacy.”

“现在很明显，我们没有采取足够的措施来防止有人利用这些工具伤害用户，包括虚假新闻，国外势力干涉选举，仇恨言论，以及开发者和隐私数据。”

Near the start of Wednesday's congressional hearing, New Jersey Rep. Frank Pallone, Jr. asked Zuckerberg why Facebook didn't just automatically set all users' default settings to minimize data collection. That would mean Facebook's users would have to opt in if they wanted to share their personal data, rather than opt out, which is the way it works today.
